Comment (by Ipstenu):

 I don't THINK so (not a lawyer).

 We need the IP addresses in order to track abuse, and since the submission
 is being made by a logged in account (where in we already have the email
 and username) I think it would be a reasonable exception.

 IIRC it falls under the legitimate interest (Article 6).

 1) We have prior consent via the account
 2) We need it to prevent abuse and protect users
